The Bird and its Haunts. — The Yellow Warbler was the first, the 

 Myrtle, the second member of the genus Dendroica whose acquaint- 

 ances I made in life. The experience is doubtless not unusual for this 

 Warbler is so abundant, so generally distributed, and so conspicuous, 

 that even as a migrant it cannot fail to attract the attention of any 

 one looking for birds. Furthermore, it appears to travel leisurely and, 

 under certain conditions, often winters in numbers far north of the 

 winter home of the warblers which pass this season in the United 

 States.
